VoiceXML in a Real Automatic Meteorological Information System

Abstract. This paper describes the work done in developing a real automatic meteorological information system by means of building a VoiceXML framework, or browser, over an open source VoiceXML interpreter. The system provides real-time telephone access to meteorological data and a warning service which keeps users informed on the weather conditions. The interpreter has been integrated with the telephony platform, the text-tospeech engine and the automatic speech recognition engine. So we have obtained a fully functional framework for VoiceXML applications quick development and deployment. In this paper, after the description of the system functionalities, we present the framework by describing its architecture and the e ort done in integrating the voice technology with the interpreter as long as in overcoming the di culties found from the industrial point of view.
